Benefits

Alongside the superior benefits on HSEQ and sustainability, the higher line efficiencies at a marginal operating cost makes our DLAC technology currently the best value proposition to the F&B industry.

Health, Safety, Environment and Quality

Our customers are committed to sustainability programs to reduce their environmental footprint related to water usage, energy consumption and waste production.

significant reduction of waste (wastewater from cleaning and filter material)

micro lubrication offers a potential for downsizing the capacity of fan driving motors

Quality

increased package stability

a virtually jam-free conveying operation

the quality level of the lubrication equipment contributes to a reliable and durable performance level of the filling operation (lifetime over 10 years)

meets the HACCP (Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points) requirements

Economic

Thanks to the particular technological values of the DLAC system, the line efficiency can be maximised.

Various case studies during the last 5 years revealed important operational cost savings that can be summarised as following:

Productions stops due too bottle jams

up to – 100%

Energy costs of fans

up to – 45%

Operational cost saving on cleaning

up to – 90%

Operational cost savings on filter replacement

up to – 50%

Replacement cost of guiding strips

up to – 75%

There is no need to close relative expensive service contracts to cover corrective and preventive maintenance, regular disinfection and lubricant deliveries.

We recommend closing a monitoring agreement for a half-yearly inspection including a visual check-up and control of parameter settings in the control unit ; if requested we adjust settings of parameters; each inspection is fully recorded and reported.

If customers subscribe to this agreement we offer following guarantees :

We were told to expect at 50% to 70% reduction in jams, however, with the exception of gate jams, 0% of our bottle jams have been eliminated.

The primary benefit of the CHP product is increased line productively by eliminating bottle jams. That alone resulted in very quick paybacks. In addition, there was energy savings from blower fans, which now only need about half the air pressure to operate. There are also savings from extended filter and neck guide life. We achieved a very quick payback by applying this system based upon the reduction of bottle jams and we got the added bonus of 45% fan energy reduction for free! That’s real productivity gains and energy savings.
